I had planned to not only enjoy Spring Break but take a break from the blog. Yet I woke up rested this morning wanting to chronicle our adventure and time away. I need to do it through photos so I can do the usual photo book- we have some favorites. I could do it as I have with other trips and put my thoughts and itinerary down in notebooks, or on hotel stationary. I have fond memries on our honeymoon of capture our fun on St. John- Joe and I would sit on our back patio- he's smoke a cigar, I sip some scotch and we'd reflect on the day. We savored each and every moment of that trip and reflected to help lock in the memories.
So then I thought I'd capature and just save the drafts but that doens't feel right and then I have this back log of posts to inindate the web…and then I was preseented with something too good not to share! So here you go- my entry for today. I'm not sure how regular I'll update and share but here is today.
I'm pretty happy right now- really happy! And not just because I'm getting what I needed- rest, a break, in Maryland, at home. I warned my Mom that we'd drive to Maryland on Friday night and then Saturday morning I wanted to just stay at the hotel until noon. I wanted to sleep, hang out in bed, watch TV- maybe I'd get lucky and get a movie to watch.
Guess what- yup- I got the movie- just what I needed- a beautiful beautiful movie. One I'd never seen, always wanted to and even better it ties to my life soooo beautifully. I loved ducks and geese growing up so I was always told to see this movie- I caught the end once accidentally.
- Time out- what you also need to know as I lay in there this morning in that well rested, no where to go way (a rare thing in my life on Newark-Granville Road) I was thinking about how to resist the effort to get u and start working. My mind at rest can't help but think about work- ideas and those few little things I didn't get done yesterday…I actually did leave feeling a good.
Here is the cool thing- the movie I'm watching also ties to work! I'm so fortunate to work in a place where I learn and experience cool things everyday.
